We interrupt this program…
By admin, on February 12th, 2010
I’m taking a break right now and was just wondering about something. I’m going to list some pins on Etsy this weekend, and the more I look at the heart, the more I like it with just the heart trinket. I like it with the key too, but without the key maybe it seems more balanced? Would love any thoughts on this. 
And of course I should have put a picture of the before.
My work day is half over. Ahhh. Won’t be long now. Michaela has done all of her school work and is off for a play date with a homeschooled friend. I’ll have to post an update on our workbox/cereal boxes. They do work really, really well when I put effort into it. A little effort on my part makes the school day effortless. :)

About Lynn 
Approaching-50 mother of four. Thrifter. Content with lots of clothes bought for very little money. Loves retro. (That could be styles from the 40s and 50s. And sometimes stuff even older than that. And sometimes stuff from all time, all mixed up together!) Bluffs about decluttering but secretly loves STUFF. Goes through stages. Has standing and staring spells before rearranging the entire home. Just because. Tune in each day to see what new outfit comes home from G.W. Boutique next. (That's Goodwill, by the way.) Oh, and she owns a spoiled beagle named Annie. And this blog.

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884

Very pretty either way, but I prefer the key. Probably becuase I have a thing for keys, and for hearts
I like the picture with the two hearts. I’ll be honest and tell you that I didn’t see the pic with the key, so it might be just as lovely. Why not list both?
Have you joined the homeschooling street team yet on Etsy. We’re a group of homeschooling Etsians. We work together to promote each other through treasuries and the like.

Let me know if I can answer any questions you have about the team. They’re really a great bunch…very supportive.
Michelle, I totally love old keys!
Shannon, thank you so much for telling me about that. I will check it out as soon as I get the chance. I’ve worked today, and have to work tomorrow, but soon! Thanks again!
Hi Lynn, I love the pin both ways! Have a great weekend
Hi Lynn! I have to say that it is nice with just the heart, but I L-O-V-E it with the key attached. There is just something unique about it that appeals to me and my imagination.
hi lynn–
i think the key and the heart together are extra-special.
i will look forward to an update on your workboxes, esp. since that’s what i was searching when i found your blog!
Thank you for all of your feedback! I think every single person I’ve asked likes the key there too! I must get busy in the shop!
Will do that workbox update soon!
The key jsut seems to say, “You hold the key to my heart”…I like it best like that too!
